SUPERINTENDENT’S  INSTRUCTIONS  TO 
NURSES  AT  CONTAGION  HOSPITAL. 

(a)  On  receipt  of  a patient  immediately  conduct 
him  to  the  bathroom  and  give  him  a bath,  after  which 
furnish  them  with  clean  underclothing  and  assign 
them  to  a clean  bed  with  sufficient  bedclothing  to 
keep  them  comfortable.  If  too  sick  to  visit  the  closet, 
provide  them  with  a night  vessel,  the  contents  of 

—26— 


which  must  be  emptied  into  a slop  sink  after  use, 
the  vessel  cleaned  and  returned. 

(b)  The  cast-off  clothing  must  be  hung  in  the 
fumigating  room  and  thoroughly  fumigated,  after 
which  make  into  a bundle  and  mark  name  of  patient 
on  same  and  store  in  garret,  where  they  must  remain 
until  the  patient  is  ready  for  discharge.  Where  ver- 
min is  found  on  clothing  extra  precaution  must  be 
taken  that  they  do  not  become  scattered  about  the 
building.  The  female  nurse  will  attend  to  the  wants 
of  the  female  patients,  also  the  cooking  and  washing, 
being  assisted  by  the  male  nurse  and  such  of  the 
patients  as  are  able  to  perform  labor. 

(c)  See  that  no  person  leaves  the  stockade  until 
regularly  discharged.  When  patients  are  discharged 
fumigate  their  clothing  and  effects,  give  them  a bath 
and  remove  all  scabs  from  body.  When  they  have 
dressed  they  must  not  come  in  contact  with  any  one 
in  the  institution.  No  nurse  or  other  person  will  be 
permitted  to  leave  the  institution  except  under  the 
rules  which  may  be  prescribed. 

(d)  The  rooms,  porch  and  yard  must  be  kept  in  a 
cleanly  condition  and  disinfectants  used  freely.  An- 
swer all  calls  of  the  electric  bell  and  telephone  day 
and  night,  and  see  that  the  electric  lights  are  not  un- 
necessarily burned. 

(e)  No  mail  or  package  of  any  kind  will  be  per- 
mitted to  be  sent  out.  If  the  patient  wishes  to  com- 
municate with  family  or  friends  outside  they  may  do 
so  through  the  Superintendent.
